Why did the Nazis chose the swastika? Did it have any relevance to their "Aryan master race" idea?
it's a symbol that appears in practically every indo-european culture on earth so it's reasonable to suspect that it's straightly inherited from their pure aryan ancestors
hitler thought it looked edgy but it was actually from fucking indian hindus

Who were the Aryans? Why did the Nazis feel that the German people were Aryans? Why not Slavs, or Jews, etc?

The swastika is the prime symbol of the Aryans.

The Swaztika is a common symbol all over the world and its prevalence in Europe and Germany is comparable to in India. Hitler himself saw a Swatzika as a symbol on the church that he went to as a child. He later used it because commies were spamfucking the hammer and sickle. It's like the Pepe of ideological symbols and the Hammer and Sickle the Wojak.

It has significance in ancient Germanic culture.

>Who were the Aryans?
An ancient human race.
>Why did the Nazis feel that the German people were Aryans?
There are no Aryans alive (that we know of) today, only descendants, neither culturally cohesive, nor racially pure.
No Aryans, only Aryanids now.
National Socialists (not "Nazi") accurately regarded some sectors, not all, of the Germanic peoples to be Aryanids, but not only Germanics, but also peoples from other places in the world like some Amerindian peoples, since the Aryans spread their civilization globally.
>Why not Slavs, or Jews, etc?
Simply because Slavs, and Jews, do not descend from the Aryans, but from the Turanians.
Indians actually stole the swatiska from germanics

The most proper use of the word "Aryan" is for the group of people in the eastern sphere of the Indo-European language family who became the Iranians and (northern) Indians. however, people used to use the term to mean the original founding branch of the Indo-Europeans (what we now call the Yamnaya).
Aryans are not a race. it's an ethno-linguistic term. many dumb white supremacists however are idiots who believe that THE HWITE RACE is the same thing as "the Aryans", and the swastika is a symbol that is found across many Indo-European cultures, therefore it was adopted

Half angel/half men from the north pole (which used to be tropical)
The germans were insecure about the fact that in reality they are turkish swamp people, so they stole the hyperborean mantle from the scandinavians that had oppressed them during the migration period.
The most aryan peoples left alive are western Norwegian/Icelanders, estonians, lithuanians and north-western finns.

Pretty much every culture that invented weaving had a swastika-like symbol. It's ancient, and the Nazis used it to imply a connection to some ancient "Aryan" civilization in Europe.

>Why did the Nazis chose the swastika?
It tied in well with Hitler's "Ancient Aryans" theory, since it was used across half the globe.
